  • On a 250-acre National Trust farm with stunning sea views
  • Wildlife haven five minutes' walk from the Pembrokeshire Coast Path
  • Firewood or charcoal available to buy for campfires and barbecues
In an utterly lush location just four miles north of St Davids, Celtic Camping in Pembrokeshire is based on the 250-acre working and wildlife-laden National Trust farm of Pwll Caerog, part of which is a Site of Special Scientific Interest. And then there’s the beach: the pebbly cove of Aber Pwll is at the foot of the farm about five minutes’ walk away. You’ll be reeling with glee at the views from all around here, right across the Irish Sea and Abereiddy Bay with slate quarry-filled Blue Lagoon, a deeply desirable spot for diving and twice host of the Red Bull Cliff Diving World Series. If you want walkies, the Pembrokeshire Coast Path is about 500 metres from the farm and coastal trails run from Abereiddy to the village of Porthgain in one direction, and to Whitesands Bay via St Davids Head in the other. This is a relaxed and friendly site with loads of space for all: dogs, families, individuals and couples included. Toilets and showers are cleaned and maintained on a regular basis by a dedicated cleaning team. During peak season, the site opens up a restaurant for breakfast and evening meals. There's a shop on site during high season, as well as musical entertainment every Saturday evening during the summer months. The site also has a large temporary indoor dining area, but you might reckon this is one of the most viewsome places around to eat alfresco: campfires and barbecues are – naturally – allowed, and firewood or charcoal can be bought from the amiable Celtic Camping team.

What customers say

Fantastic sea views & coastal path access. Staff are legend, facilities spotless (hot showers!). Spacious, chilled vibes, though it can get breezy & some pitches are sloped. Great location & facilities overall.

Liked Stunning view, absolutely breathtakingly close to the coast. Truly beautiful.

Disliked Wind trap (all directions) which unfortunately cut our trip short. The wind was relentless and due to its location meant that very little sleep was had.

From the manager: Hi there,

Thank you for your feedback.
Wow! What great photos! We’re really pleased you enjoyed the views, the washing facilities, and that our team made a good impression. Being able to have a fire is something we know our guests love, so we're glad you enjoyed that too 😊.

Regarding the WiFi — We’re really sorry about the WiFi during your stay. We were in the process of trialling a new system to improve coverage across the site, but unfortunately, your visit happened to fall right in the middle of the transition. The good news is the new setup is now live and performing much better — so things should be much smoother for future stays.

We understand the rush that comes over the Bank Holiday. While we aim to maintain a smooth experience for everyone by doing site patrol, we know it can get a little busier (and occasionally noisier) during this weekend. We’re continuing to improve how we manage large group bookings and site coordination to keep everyone happy at full capacity.

Thanks again for staying with us — and we’d love to welcome you back during another weekend other than bank holiday so you can enjoy the site at its most relaxing!

Warm regards,
The Celtic Camping Team

After a mix up with our pitch Ian sorted it very quickly.

Liked All the facilities were great and the location was perfect

Disliked Our only gripe was that there were other campers who were being SO loud until around 4am (it was the bank holiday weekend) no enforcement given to be respectful of others.

Liked I really enjoyed my stay. It was the bank holiday so it was busy, there’s aways one group that can be annoying. However I let staff know of the situation and it was handled immediately. Absolute legend with 2 german shepherds helped me out! The problem was solved, very grateful as the rest of my stay was great. View was amazing also!

From the manager: Hi there,

Thank you so much for your kind words and for sharing your experience! We’re glad you enjoyed the amazing views!

We always want to make sure everyone has a comfortable and relaxing stay. It’s wonderful to hear Ian and especially our two German Shepherds — were able to help quickly and resolve the noise issue for you.

We’d love to welcome you back anytime — I'm sure the dogs would too!

Warm regards,
The Celtic Camping Team

Lower Abereiddi Field powered grass site

Liked Amazing views. The nearby coastal path leading the the blue lagoon.

Disliked The toilet and shower block were unclean and not enough for the size of the campsite. The pitch we had was really unsuitable for a campervan and we had to purchase blocks to level the van and even then we were on a slant. Rubbish and dog poo were left around the vacant pitches. We informed the office about the mess, nothing was done.

Local attractions

Coasteering, kayaking, sailing, surfing, rock climbing and other hair-raising and scenic adventures are all around, with several activity centres easily reachable from Celtic Camping; the site staff can arrange something for those who’d like to plunge in. If you’re taking to the area under your own steam, Pembrokeshire has dozens of eye-wateringly pretty beaches to pick from: award-winning Whitesands, about 40 minutes’ walk from Abereiddy Bay, is a hit with surfers for the breaks on its northern end. A little further along the coast from Whitesands and towards the north end of St Brides Bay on St Davids Peninsula, slip around to the fishing village and harbour of Solva to drop jaw at the views around the Griben coastal walk. Pick up freshly dressed Pembrokeshire crab at the village seafood shop for later back at the barbie: three pubs, two cafés and two restaurants are around too for a pitstop. The Puffin Shuttle coastal bus goes from Solva to Britain’s smallest city St Davids three times a day in summer: get the early one to see the cathedral properly as well as Bishops Palace beside it.
